[Stic-o]

Well I got my new toy today! Found this Bumper in the Recycler for $50 bucks Came off a '66 EB. It's made from 1/4" 2x4's. Weights about 125lbs.

Can't wait to get it on!!!

So, is it gonna fit your Explorer?

I'll make it fit

The EB frame width (center to center) is 27" and the Ex is about 28 3/4"

You should let me have that.. you know, so you can still build your tube one.

 

[Jefe]

That should look. . . um. . .interesting on the front of your rig.

But hey, for $50 I guess its a steal, especially with the roller fairlead so everyone thinks you have a winch

Your just Jealous!

I could have got a D44 off a K5 too but I passed on it cause a a K5 is Pass. drop. :thumbdwn: And I don't anywhere to store something I'm not going to use. Altough I'm thinking I should have just for the nuckles.

It looks like you have some work cut out for you. Did it come with those scrawny chicken legs in the pictures?

Ah...no Those Scrawny chiken legs picked it up for me. It's at my dad's house, I havn't actualy seen it yet in person.

 

[BKennedy]

Ahhhh, it must run in the family

 

[AspenX]

Tough lookin bumper.

 

[bmxking5]

Nice bumper for $50

 

[Stic-o]

Well finally did a test fit today. This is what it will look like.

It's not on straight in the picture, just there for pic.

 

[j602]

Not bad at all. Only suggestion I have is to paint the diamond plate black. I think would look much better.

 

[FAT CAT]

That's gonna be cool! You found a good deal. What kind of winch are you gonna mount on there?

 

[nascar_intimid]

are you accessible to a sand blaster and have it powder coated...I wish I were lucky like you in finding what I want...good job, looks sharp!!

 

[Stic-o]

Bumper is now on!

Check it out!

I'm not sure about the lights where there at yet Looks a little like a frog or something.

 

[Jefe]

Bumper looks good

The lights :thumbdwn:
They need to be lower (either hanging from the upper bar, or above the main bar)

I just put them there to get then on I was going to put them under the hoop but I need to make piece to go across first. If I flip them now the side bars are in the way
